How did Bishop Laval organize the Roman Catholic Church in New France?
François de Laval, b. Apr. 30, 1623, d. May 6, 1708, was the first Roman Catholic bishop in Canada. He was born in France of a wealthy family and was educated by the Jesuits. Ordained a priest in 1647, he became a bishop in 1658 and was appointed vicar apostolic of New France. He arrived in Quebec in 1659.
A man of vision and character, Laval laid the foundations for the Catholic church in Canada. Afraid of having an inadequate number of diocesan priests, he founded (1663) a seminary in Quebec. Later the seminary became (1852) Laval University. He also organized an educational system that included a trade school and primary schools. His interest in Indian affairs and vigorous opposition to the sale of alcohol to Indians brought him into frequent conflict with the colonial authorities. In 1674, Laval succeeded in having Quebec declared a diocese and was named its first bishop. He resigned as bishop in 1688 but remained in Quebec until his death. The case for his canonization was begun in 1878; he was beatified in 1960. Laval is one of the main characters in Shadows on the Rock (1931), a novel by Willa Cather.
